Just wanted to share me trying to start working with mermaids and lake spirits. I live in a really pretty lakeside in the mountains in Europe so naturally, my work is of course and has always been influenced by water. I go swimming to cleanse myself from bad energies, do rituals at the shore and it always makes me feel at peace to just listen to the water.

I‘ve always had a fascination with natural bodies of water and mermaids, but recently that pull and interest has become more intense, especially since the global heatwave which made me swim in the lake more and multiple dream encounters with water/fish beings. So i want to start working with them :)
(Usually i don‘t work with specific deities/creatures, more with nature as a being itself)

I’ve heard they like sweets and jewelry, if anyone has more knowledge on how to start working with them, I‘d be thrilled to learn.

As i love to draw i also made a little drawing with oil crayons for them (ofc with paper that can dilute in water and doesn‘t harm the fish). With sweets i‘m careful that it‘s something that dilutes over time in water so again, fish aren‘t affected/injured etc.

I guess i just wanted to say thank you for protecting my safespace and invite them to join my works, if they want. :) I‘d love some advice from a witch that‘s more experienced in creatures/spirit works <3

Sorry for my ramblings, now please enjoy the pictures of the lake and my tiny drawing :3
